Posted 24 Mar 2022 If I remember it correctly, that yes, up to 16 slave nodes by computer link protocol. However, I'm warning to build the network using the FX2N-485-BD due to these interface boards has non-isolated RS485 interface, which is correctly to use inside the electrical cabinet only. To use FX2N-485ADP is a right solution. 1 person likes this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 24 Mar 2022 thanks Inntele for your precious reply. infact i want to share some registers from plc 1 , PLC2 ------ PLC into scada. but as far i am looking for . it shows bit. can you please share some material or some hints. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted 24 Mar 2022 I may be wrong, but since the PC side is RS-232 it can only communicate with one device? Or is it solved through driver/software? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It depends on the OPC server and its PLC polling. In real any type of memory cells are available for reading/writing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
